Don't ever do that; it tempts some dark and evil force abroad in the universe  (Tempts Quotes) She wanted to go inside. She wanted to go in, wanting it as we want to jump from balconies, as the glint of the rails tempts us when we hear the approaching train  (Tempts Quotes) The devil tempts men through their ambition, their cupidity, or their appetite, until he comes to the profane swearer, whom he clutches without any reward  (Tempts Quotes)
